  • Bring Jim back

    Was a great podcast when Jim was the host. This was my favorite podcast and I looked forward to it each week. Now it’s just another average CRE podcast.

    If the guests on the hosts didn’t say “right?” at the end of every sentence, the shows would be about 5 min long

    I have enjoyed the new podcast, and have learned a lot about syndications. I consider myself more of a center fielder - i have both my 401(k) and stock investments, and i have 22 doors as well as 2 syndication investments.

    I was shocked to hear this latest podcast. I strongly wonder how Chris Miles can call himself a "financial advisor" without knowing these facts, as these are very basic for even non-CFP advisors.

    Blatantly false items -

    - they mis-represent the 4% rule completely. First, t... more

  • 4% Rule Episode was less than stellar

    I thought the 4% rule episode had nice points and I understood what they were saying, but I think they were a bit biased and went a little too far in their analysis…. I know plenty of people who exclusively utilize mutual funds or stocks to become financially free. It’s a proven strategy. Just because the study is old doesn’t mean there isn’t truth in it or the math still doesn’t work.

    This show is so needed and could be so great. But I listened to my first episode and it’s a non-economist spouting off theories.

    If you are going to talk about the economy, please have an expert on, not a biased individual who focuses on real estate for a living. And please focus on syndications - this is the kind of thing you can get on the other BP network, it’s redundant and goes against what should be a very niche area.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Medical Office Investing: A Recession-Resistant Real Estate Niche | Jeff Axley
Q: Can you walk us through the deal dynamics of the Texas four-pack you mentioned?
We acquired the portfolio at a discount to replacement cost, with a 7% cap on low- to mid-20s rents, and we projected a 24% IRR on the deal given the reversion to market rents and the potential to sell buildings individually to doctor groups.
Medical Office Investing: A Recession-Resistant Real Estate Niche | Jeff Axley
Q: How do MOBs compare to traditional offices in terms of build-out costs and tenant improvements?
TI allowances are typically larger for MOBs due to specialized build-outs (operating rooms, LINACs, HVAC requirements), but this is offset by longer leases and stronger guarantors, which supports value preservation over time.
Medical Office Investing: A Recession-Resistant Real Estate Niche | Jeff Axley
Q: What attracts you to medical office space as an asset class within healthcare real estate?
The sector benefits from durable, long-term leases, strong tenant credit in many cases (doctors or hospital systems), lower volatility from policy shifts, and a predictable demand driven by aging populations and outpatient care shifts.
Pat Zingarella on Fraud, Sponsor Reputation, and Verified LP Feedback
Q: What market did Pat first invest in, and what was his learning from that experience?
Pat explains his first real estate purchase in Southwest Florida, the fourplex, and how quick underestimation and poor due diligence led to significant financial strain during COVID, teaching him to be cautious and trust evidence over people.
DLP’s Preferred Credit Fund: 10-11% Target Returns, Loan Tape, and Risk Questions
Q: What is the loan-to-value at origination and how does it compare through the life of a project?
Origination loan-to-value is typically low because borrowers invest most of the equity upfront; day-one LTV can be around 50-52% for the amount advanced, with LTV generally remaining low during construction as equity is put in early and debt is drawn later, resulting in lower risk near project completion.
